Abstract: | Fossil assemblages of planktonic Foraminifera contain many valuable clues to paleoclimate and paleo-oceanography. Unfortunately, our understanding of production, dissolution, redeposition, and other processes of foraminiferal sedimentation is but rudimentary. Lacking direct observations, information largely rests on comparisons between abundance and composition patterns of life-, death-, and sediment-assemblages. |
